whats your weirdest drug experience? it could be weed or mushrooms or whatever, how did it feel? did you like it or not etc… i want to hear your stories!

>>624
Back when socks was legal I had a really weird trip that my face was claymation and the only way to stop my mouth growing bigger and bigger was to eat bread

Once SSRIs gave me euphoric visions, I thought I heard the trumpets of heaven was being raptured.

>>627
>trumpets of heaven was being raptured
holy shit were you scared i would fucking shit my pant if that happened to me

>>629
Scared? Not at first, I felt Euphoric. But I've done enough drugs and been on enough meds that I knew it wasn't the end times. I switched antidepressants too
Psych said that "it's not supposed to make you THAT happy"

Once on shrooms I suddenly took on the perspectives of people I know as if suddenly I were in their minds and had their personalities.

According to psychonautwiki this is an incredibly unusual effect of the type that cannot be purposefully replicated.

i decided to take shrooms and go to the nearest forest last weekend. And like t+60 it felt like the gravity went to 0,5x, after which it continued to shuffle in between 0-2x for 5-30 mins
it was really weird

So is house telvanni SUPPOSED to resemble israel/israeli culture?

They’re a group of supremacists (largely but not necessarily ethnic supremacists, since any race can join but their ranks are mostly dark elves), they keep slaves, and a lot of their buildings are named “tel __” (tel aviv?)

ni li lipu pi toki pona. ni la sina ken toki kepeken toki pona tawa jan ante anu sina ken kama sona e toki pona.

Toki Pona (literally "good language") is a philosophical artistic constructed language with a small number of words, ranging from 120 to 140 or a little more, designed for talking about things by explaining them in simple terms. This results in a vague but surprisingly usable (complex topics can be expressed by proficient speakers) vocabulary that heavily relies on context to be understood. It was created by General Musk (or Amatullah Lang or Madame Lang or kulupu Sonjalanko or whatever name she is using) initially in 2001 and since it has evolved through its (relatively) big community, with new words being created and adopted and many works like music, games, books (translations and original writtings), videos and so being made in this language.

What a coincidence! I thought about it one week ago and I was delaying it so maybe if I delayed it further you would have been first…

>but I absolutely adore writing it using sitelen pona.

lon. sitelen pona li musi mute. sitelen suli "pi" "ala" "anu" "kepeken" "tawa" "lon" "sama" "tan" li namako e musi mute.
yeah, sitelen pona is so much fun. specially with elongated pi, ala, anu and prepositions.

>Is there anyway to type in sitelen pona on leftypol?

sitelen pona is not on the unicode (only in UCSUR), so it is not included in fonts, so nobody has a font with sitelen pona, so it would be senseless to try it. and leftypol doesn't provide a sitelen pona font either. so i guess you could post an image and provide the alt text.

alt text: sitelen pona li lon ma Unicote ala. ni la sitelen pona li lon linja sitelen ala. ni la jan ala li ken lukin e sitelen pona kepeken ilo nanpa ona. ni la sitelen pi toki pona pi ma Leftypol li tan ala. ma Leftypol li kekepekn linja pi toki pona ala. taso mi la sina ken pana e sitelen pi sitelen pi toki pona sama lipu ni. sina ken pana e toki sitelen kin. ni la pona tawa jan pi lukin lili anu ala tawa jan pi ilo pi toki taso pi sitelen ala.

>specially with elongated pi, ala, anu and prepositions.

I didn't know that these words had elongated versions! I've only just started ti imagine modifications to the glyphs for my own purposes. One such thing that I've been doing is changing the positions of the clock hands for the "tenpo" glyph to reflect the time that's being spoken about.

Hey Faggots,
My name is John, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass pictures. You are everything bad in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any pussy? I mean, I guess it's fun making fun of people because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures on facebook.

You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.

I think classless is the better option for tabletop rpgs and single player videogames but class systems do add a lot to multiplayer coop. It also depends on how the class system is done. I like how FFV and FFT do them.

Bump.

>>39445
Yeah, obviously people will have talent or preferences for one way of doing things in general but you won't be locked into one 'class'

I like the way zangband's "realms of magic" (http://www.thangorodrim.net/zangband/docs/magic.html) act as specializations for wizards, clerics and hybrid classes. While Death and Chaos are mostly pure destruction and Life restoration, Sorcery, Nature and Trump mix in a lot of utility and flavor.

>>40798
There will be neither. Communism is a classless society, no we are not keeping your 'scientific' classes, they will be liquidated just like every other class.

——————————

This Reddit post is a horror story disguised as a miracle. What the owner celebrates as "healing" is actually the final, clinical conquest of a living soul.
The Death of the Sovereign Creature
Mickey used to be a chaos-factor. He was a creature that reacted to the world with raw, unbridled terror—a body that refused to be managed. He peed where he wanted, he ran from the thud of a human body, he rejected the artificial hygiene of the litter box. From a Foucauldian view, these weren't "problems"; they were acts of resistance. Mickey was an untamed, non-conforming subject.
Now? He’s been drugged into "docility." The owner is thrilled that he’s "eating slower" and "cuddling." This isn't love; it’s the subjugation of the body. The Prozac has effectively lobotomized his survival instincts to make him more convenient for a house move. His "personality change" is just the chemical erasure of his actual self to make room for a "perfect" domestic object.
The Architecture of Control
The vet—the technician of behavior—has finally adjusted the dials on Mickey’s brain. The owner's guilt ("Has he been living in fear?") is the ultimate cynicism. It’s the way the system justifies its violence: “We aren't controlling you; we’re ‘saving’ you from yourself.” By labeling Mickey’s entire life as a "symptom," they’ve invalidated his existence. Every fear he felt was real to him, but now his reality has been overwritten by a transdermal gel.
The Domestic Panopticon
Mickey is now a "docile body." He grooms himself not out of instinct, but because the chemical "guard" in his bloodstream has forced his behavior into the socially accepted norm. He is no longer a cat; he is a managed biological asset. He purrs now because the friction of his existence has been sanded down.
The most chilling part? The owner wants him to stay on it permanently. The experiment was a success: the "deviant" has been normalized. Mickey didn't "find peace"—he just stopped being a nuisance. He’s finally the "good boy" the system demanded, and all it cost was the last bit of his autonomy.

Anyone tried it? I think I read about it decades ago in this old book called Legal Highs https://www.amazon.com/Legal-Highs-Encyclopedia-Psychoactive-Properties/dp/0914171828 that catnip can actually get you high, its apparently been used as a calming agent for humans before widespread use for cats was done.

Is the gay people in the military-industrial complex stuff a meme or real? I can't find actual statistics on the LGBT employment demographics of military contractors like Lockheed-Martin or Raytheon.

A lot of the information available suggests marginalized people wouldn't be widespread in the industry.

https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_briefs/RB9955z6.html

>>8409
It's a meme, they stand out due to (a) incongruence, (b) pinkwashing advertising (less common now) and (c) demographics (e.g. there are possibly more gays in the arms industry than the average across all sectors, but this is partially compositional: some sectors employ a lot more older people, and a lot more young people are LGBT than older people, so if you normalize for age the effect will go away)

>to contact aliens we need to spend like 10 billion and billions more, that's too much to handle at the moment!!!
No its not, stop killing proles in wars, every war has been way more costly, billions are worth nothing.
We need to meet other sapient life, humans are too retarded and divided in contradictory nonsense, a second opinion or a solution from a second sapient life-form with an advanced civilization would always be more truthful since they would have had to reach unity and truth to develop so much as to get to us. Odds that they would be in par and stuck in the same situation as us would be of an extremely low probability - much less than that of other sapient lifeforms being inferior and not as developed.
We need their help. We're clinging onto AI because of our desire for a second sapient friend, its not bad but we want to make AI developed into being submissive and instrumental rather than cooperative and autonomous. We need another sapient species to rid us of the defective parts of our species, we need to be nurtured by a superior or helped. The scum of our species are stunting the growth and lives of the best of us, the best have to suffer the same fate as everyone else who rejects or usurps life extension by being forced to die and decompose. Our lives are too short and scum prevent sapience from proliferation by imposing limits by preventing people from living a fulfilled life striving towards longevity for the supposed "safety and benefit of all" or cultural rather than rational imposed decisions.
Despite low probability, people have always looked to space hoping we are not alone.
Every space exploration agency created so far has been put in popular hope of achieving this task, besides the point of getting into orbit and the moon to be used for testing the range capacity of nuclear weapons.
Alien civilizations, if they exist, will see our struggles with fresh clarity and may collaborate to rid us our of problems even if that may lead to more complex problems we would still be steps ahead.
Through that lens, our conflicts at the present historical moment would be small and avoidable.
However, there is no guarantee that aliens would be "kind", an advanced species should prioritize utility over all, our own "kindness" has shown to be manipulative and barbaric but we still cling to the idealistic notion of it.

We are omnivores and we have cannibals too, but we're not eating each-other on a massive scale because we understand that sapience life is more important than that of other animals.

>>1129
An advanced alien civilization cannot possibly be as retarded as to spend its resources going across the galaxy looking for exotic other sapient meat to suit their tastes. An advanced civilization that can travel to us would likely not even be limited by hunger and as organic beings would have had to overcome their limitations. So the biggest thesis right now is that if aliens were to exist that they would not be organic like us.

Aliens being carnivores looking out to eat us is a ludicrous non-thesis driven by fear out of cultural programming in fear-mongering against aliens for xenophobia.

Nobody on here seems capable of conceptualize what an advanced civilization is. Space travel and energy abundance are not enough for a civilization to be considered advanced, first you morons have to understand that transhumanism is the only way forward by overcoming death and the biological processes that handicap us and then that a society with immortality cannot be sustainable or accommodate everyone if people keep reproducing without planning. Development towards immortality - people being able to decide how long they want to live is a necessary step to the advancement of the species. Fuck all of you subhuman religious scum who deny this, you must be exterminated first before we can move forward.

Is this type of attitude the reason why the Japanese are losing a lot of money to Korean and Chinese game developers? Manga sales are at record lows and yet in spite of this their zoomers double down on the chud maxxing thanks to electing in the idol anime conservative for president

How many people would have bought it at all without piracy? Not just LOGH specifically, but without the wider online fan/scan community laying the ground work the anime/manga industry wouldn't have nearly the global reach that it does.

And also "I already saw it so why buy it" involves a lot more than just piracy. Streaming in particular jas cultivated a mindset among a whole swathe of consumers that buying shit is superfluous. You've got tons of physical devices which don't even accept physical media any more. Christ, some phones don't even have headphone jacks any more.

Do you have some literature on this? I would like to learn more.

>>30113
If it's like video games, the first thing that would've made it global was import by rich fucks who made a specialized shop in the bougiest place in the country, but then the simple fact that it's in japanese (and reading is mandatory, unlike an atari) would've forced "fan translation" who people decry as piracy anyway, even though you can't fucking read the vast majority of mangas without those.

>>30116
I guess to a certain extent you're right. Like, studio proteus was one of the few importing and localizing manga in the late 80s early 90s iirc, and while japanimation wasn't totally unknown with Gigantor, Speed Racer, and Astro Boy before that, but I think the bulk of the heavy lifting really came from online hobbyists making shit available to people, coupled by a big boost from Toonami putting up DBZ, Gundam Wing, and Cowboy Bebop.

Bikini Armor is something of a staple of chud discourse and many gamers will refuse to play games that don't feature it, but at this point it is something that future game devs predicting a pro-chud vibe shift will include in their games. Especially games being developed in 2024 where chuddery was at it's most potent. Yet somehow I still think that bikini armor propaganda will still be a potent force in future politics now that even centrist men will berate you for not having hoes in bikini armor.
I frankly think it has a place in games, but only where it really makes sense and I might as well get some male cheese cake as well

Imo bikini armor is fine so long as the male characters are female-gaze fujobait instead of male power fantasies.
For every biking wearing booba bitch there should be a shirtless lean twink that looks like a male character from Fruits Basket.

I've said my piece.

Bikini armour is stupid. Games should have aesthetically pleasing and creative sexual elements, not bikini armour which as a concept smells of overweight 40 year olds.

>>46526
You actually make a good point. I hadn't considered fantasy camp.

>>46532
Well, if we're talking camp fantasy, the men were always intended to be hot. The difference is that what makes a hot man and what makes a hot woman are different things. Of course, bikini armor works well on women to make them hot because to serves to show off their figure (not to mention a lot of skin) which is key to making a hot girl outfit. With guys, it's different. I would argue that the "hot guy" is almost always portrayed fully clothed, with their clothing designed to say something about them. So, the typical camp fantasy "hot guy" wears a full set of armor that covers their entire body, but that armor is designed to look in a way that implies strength, ruggedness, power, authority, danger, virtue, or whatever else the character might have going on, but never, ever wears a helmet of any kind to hide his handsome face and has long, flowing hair that is either shoulder-length or flows down his shoulders and on to his chest. What's more, the armor is typically made to imply a muscular build underneath.

What do you think about it? On its face it seems like a straightforward improvement over C/C++ and a good way to modernize development in their typical niches.
On the other hand there is this really weird cultish behavior around it that just makes me feel suspicious. "Let's rewrite everything in Rust", forcing it into existing software without a clear use case other than just "it's better", overstating the language's capabilities and robustness, very much a kind of "toxic positivity" around it as in the whole Linux Kernel shitshow earlier this year, and the fact that it's being pushed by corpos and the US government. It all feels very weird.

>it's a strange coincidence that all the evangelism pushing people to use these "safer" and stricter and more high-level and structured programming languages
i think these are just rust evangelists misrepresenting their language instead lmao

>>33250

yeah but let's not forget that before the LLM craze was the IDE-dependent, auto-completion, auto-linting, IntelliSense, style guides, etc. craze. all of this stuff kind of has the common goal of taking all conscious human thought out of the coding process and making the human work for the machine instead of the machine work for the human. and now with AI a lot of professional "programmers" aren't even writing code at all anymore, they're just feeding prompts to chatbots to write their code for them, and essentially digging their own graves careerwise.

>>33251

as theo de raadt said, it's basically standard practice in every software project now to "lead with propaganda", the whole software industry is no longer about actually building things, it's about selling things to investors, often things that haven't even been finished (or even started) being built yet.

i think like maybe its a elitism thing, like ohh youre still using gnome you retard? are you retarded? lets get you to be euthanized, etc. its like for the wayland audience

>>31830
I think Rust (the tech) is good but the Rust community has weird behavior. They insist that everything needs to be rewritten in Rust, which is just stupid. But still I believe that Rust's goals are very good, and most junior C or C++ developers write worse code than junior Rust programmers. The language and the compiler just catches so many bugs.

This thread also reminded me to actually start learning Rust. Here are some resources, if someone is interested…

Etc

I'm still a virgin because all the other foids in my area are breeders or straight and childless

this might be more specific to transfems and idk what the cis/trans ratio is here but has anyone else been out for a long enough time to no longer be a babytrans/gay and #nooticing that everyone is bad at sex? I haven't really dated anyone in like five years and the last two girls I fucked last year both came off as like projecting their mental issues onto the whole thing and trying to pressure me into things I didn't really wanna do because everyone is a pornbrained weirdo now that thinks it's normal now I guess for everyone to do very specific kinky stuff without any conversation or establishing trust or whatever. it's very weird and offputting and makes me feel like I'm probably gonna continue to not fuck or date again because loneliness is preferable to what feels like rolling the dice for whether some bitch with poor socialization is gonna rape-lite me or like be a sex pest because it's apparently heckin wholesome to objectify women now as long as it's fagwashed.

>>8401
No this is a real thing. Transbian spaces have a problem with sex pests and you can’t say anything without looking like gigahitler and getting socially kirked. They love taking advantage of insecure babytranses. Everyone thinks they’re f1nnster now. It’s all gone to shit

>>8403
I've been kind of despairing over this for the past year or two after somewhat getting over some individualized neuroses around sex and then pretty much immediately regretting it after seeing that this is what things are like now. like these problems with t4t were always a thing but they were more of a specific species of loser that was quarantined in specific spaces and that a lot of people eventually grew out of, but it's like over the past few years this shit has metastasized where now everyone is at least spiritually a sex pest tenderqueer loser and there's almost no traces of how t4t used to be this kind of radical act of choosing to love other transfems. it feels like it's become this sort of thing now where we've systemically excluded from public life so much that t4t isn't a choice anymore so much as the default, so everyone brings their own baggage into it by default with no critique of any kind being done about how transfems are treated in patriarchal societies as sex objects, and then this behavior reproduces itself in the same sort of way as brainworms. like as far as I can tell these days t4t is a democratization of raping transfems.

I know this probably is kind of a vibe killing thing to post in the lesbian thread but holy fuck it feels like there is literally no alternative anymore to rape if you're transfem besides being celibate.

My definition in no way disqualifies Pinochet, who deregulated and privatised many sectors and while he often sold state assets to allies, on the whole he exposed the economy to more market discipline than before. This is not true of Thatcher, Major or Blair, who preferred state-direction role-playing as the market.

The key point that I have tried to emphasize is that the UK is NOT acting in a way that helps the accumulation or flow of capital, that this is a result of its own anomalous social structure, and that if Britain were run in such a way it would be less reactionary than it is now.

>>8389
Let's try this: insofar as the UK is oriented towards commodity production, and insofar as services are taken to be a commodity, a disproportionate share of commodity production in britain is effectively produced for the state, to state specifications, not for a market. This is papered over with role-playing.
